New Features of Insights: Unreal Engine's Built In Profiling Tools | Inside Unreal

This week we’ll be diving into a topic that is near and dear to all developers hearts; optimization & profiling! We’ll be taking a look at some of the new features of Unreal Insights - a telemetry capture and analyzing suite that provides you the capability to capture events from the application at high data rates, making it an incredible tool for identifying areas of your project that require optimization.

Quick appreciation comment for Ari. I started learning more about optimization and Unreal tools with the exact video he mentioned and I was actually thinking "Wait I know him !". Your presentations are always fun and very insightful. Thanks for your hard work to you all ! :wave:

So happy to see Amenda again.
Wish everyone a happy, insightful and performant weekend.

20:42 - How do you open "Unreal insights session browser" in UE 5.2 ? ... You folks kind of missed a bit part of what is needed to learn how to use the tool :D . If I had to guess from reading the docs I would think that this tool is only available by building it in visual studio is that correct? Because I sure cannot see it in UE5 anywhere in Tools or Build.

23:29 there is no Package option in 5.2 or Insights 1.3. I spent a whole day on this, traced it to the source code of the dropdown in and the option is simply not there. So I have no way to see the asset paths. WTF???

I'm wondering, since there is no console command for shipping build, how do you profile a shipping build using UnrealInsight?

How do I create a bookmark in Unreal Insight using Blueprint and console commands?

Hi quick question, can somebodu help me?
I run query on my project, but it says tree is empty, did I missed a step or something?

[nodelayfordays]

Haven't watched the whole thing yet but I think it would be nice if some how unreal insights could know when performance is being eaten up the Editor so we can get a better idea in Editor what our game is doing.

I realize the current best practice though is to just build it and profile on the build.

Hey that's great! How do I use the Timings Insights tho?

[JadanDuffin]

Why are there no links for these community Can you please start adding them to notes for the video, would do everyone a huge service to be able to actually find this content.

23:24 package doesn't exist in 5.2

May GPT4 help with this in some way?, a huge amount of data seems like a candy for it. The What and Why philosophy could be addressed in this way

Oh, I'm glad to see Amanda again 😘

Reminds me of the aggregated Unity's profiler data (Profile Analyzer), as much detailed. I guess now both engine go head to head on this field.
UPD: I take that back, looks like they dont have comparison between captures yet.

[tgykurtulus]

well, what i understand, trace is useless and if you want to find the cause you should run insight . You have to package your project . if i dont miss something, it is a useless that we use trace? or trace is something for insight?

I was literally taking not during this whole Live Stream.

To the person reading this: Even though I don’t know you, I wish you the best of what life has to offer ❤
